Abstract:

The financial services industry has responded to the inadequate security provided by username/password authentication with widespread deployment of two-factor authentication. However, criminals behind the leading banking Trojans have been innovating as well. Their latest advance - screen injection - has been successfully integrated into the Zeus, Clampi and URLZone data theft Trojans. According to the FBI, this new ability to defeat multi-factor authentication has led to more than $40 million in online banking theft from the US alone. Understanding screen injection is critical for everyone concerned with online security.

In this webinar, Laura Mather, Ph.D, Founder of Silver Tail Systems, will give a detailed explanation of screen injection. She'll provide a quick overview into the general nature of the "Man in the Browser" data theft banking Trojans and then dive into the operational details of screen injection as it has been weaponized in the Zeus malware.

We will conclude with live demonstrations of screen injection from the victim's perspective. Using first a a clean computer and then an infected computer, you will see screen injection at work on many US banking sites stealing ATM PINs, social security numbers and answers to secret questions. The challenges of detecting this devious attack and possible solutions will be discussed.
